Good morning Dear!

Somehow, I feel as if I need to be in mourning.
This is so devastating.......... and I know there is life to be lived, but I am sad for the families of these islands.

You managed to put into words exactly how I'm feeling. Like everyone else, I've been so wrapped up in the coverage and the pictures and the enormous scope of it all, that I haven't been able to think about anything else, let alone celebrate the New Year. Though the circumstances are very different from 9/11, the gut wrenching feelings in the aftermath are very much the same.

Thank you for posting ALL the pictures. Warning of graphics is more than due (thank you admin) for pictures of this nature. Pictures like this, will probably only be found in a place such as FR because the cold rawness and and unimaginable was captured with a camera lens. The reality, is almost unconceivable. It would be something like the day after Armageddon. I pray that the thoughts of the photographer are the along that line. Life is not all 8 x 10 glossy pic's, sometimes we need access to reality and truth, no matter how ugly.

If you were not prepared for the pictures, do not blame the poster, appropriate warning has been issued.

One picture of one small section of one beach.

Expound that to hundreds of beaches and thousands of miles of shorelines impacted.

[The mind can hardly comprehend the level of devastation.]

I saw someone remark how these countries have no natural barriers anymore; hence much of the devastation. Used to be that the coral reefs, mango trees and sand slowed down waves. Now it's open season on all the buildings that have been built to get that close up view of the ocean.

CNN has been getting an avalanche of emails indicating they should not be showing the horrors. They are standing by their theory that, if not shown, this would soon be forgotten.

Not even close to being on topic. Give it a rest, at least here - please.

Just as they did with 9/11 and the Americans falling from the towers. (/sarcasm)

I was getting my news from Fox at the time. Didn't CNN show photos of everything but people falling? Did anyone show these at the time?
